9.04 is no longer supported. It is EOL now

Could you try downloading and and booting from a current live cd?

You could use an ubuntu live CD (either 9.04, if you installed from CD, or download a new one) to recover any data from your existing install /home/USERNAME/, to a USB disk or over the network.

What happens exactly when you boot ?
Do you have data to recover ?

Can you help with this problem?
